Bethlehem Visitor Center at SteelStacks — Attraction in Bethlehem

Very beautiful and well kept grounds. The inside of the visitor center is coordinated nicely, modern touch screen information desks are very large, easily read, and understood.. Plus navigating the computer program to find information you are looking for is as simple as it gets. This location can definitely be entertaining to a broad variety of people. Children, Train enthusiasts, leisure walkers, historians, tour seekers, and all those in between. I can't see anyone being dissatisfied with spending some quality time roaming the property, checking out the gift shop, asking questions about it's history, and admiring the magnitude of one the industrial revolutions largest steel refineries.. If anything that alone leaves the longest lasting impression after leaving, to think that men had assembled an immovable structure using only ropes, chains, wrenches, and their own two hands.. With virtually zero forms of power equipment available at the time.

Charles M. Schwab and Joseph Wharton, My hat goes off to you both, you guys set out to "forge" your dreams and achieved the impossible. The building is no longer used to produce steel, but the impact that can still be felt in it's presence produces precious insight. Not only into how the city of Bethlehem has become as great as it is today, but cities all across the nation. If we wouldn't of had Bethlehem steel there's a possibility that some of this countries most famous skyscrapers wouldn't be standing today. So I thank you two for that.. let's all take a minute and reflect on the generations of hard working men and woman that contributed toward shaping our country into what it is today.. Then when you have the time come down and take a guided tour, or simply stroll through at your own pace.. No reservations required, and the guide trails and outdoor seating are handicap accessible.

A special thanks also to St. Luke's university health network for their contribution to preserve this important...

This place is AWESOME! Love the history, the architecture and the clean bathrooms ;) This place would be great to shoot a video! great photo ops too. Looking for some great place to shoot a movie or a video or even to take pics for your photography class or to gain inspiration for art , THIS is the place. It's also nice to take a romantic walk on the platform at night when all the Stacks are lit, or just sit and look up at the massive structure and meditate laying in the soft squishy flooring down at the little park below the stacks. Fantastic place and it's only a hop, skip and jump to the Sands Casino and Mall. I went to a concert here and let me tell you it was AWESOME! I went back the next day just to see the stacks! And tomorrow I'm goin here to see the Solar Eclipse and have lunch with my hubby. Great place to go if you are looking to do some good FREE...

Definitely a must visit place. The history is incredible and to be able to walk along and see the steel mill and what's left. It is awe-inspiring of that era of time because we really have nothing to compare to the the massive infrastructure and the technology that took place back. Then we think we got it better. I don't think we do. I think they had it down to a perfect science and I wish our steel industry would come back to what it was back then where they're here in Bethlehem in steelton Pennsylvania in Pittsburgh. Visit the old Mills if you can and the new ones. It is a...
